On the night of this Sunday (22nd), the Premier League will have the final round of the competition. Manchester City, at the top of the table, only need to beat Aston Villa at home to win the trophy. On the eve of the match, two of City's core players have received early good news: Chivan Dibny has been awarded the Premier League Player of the Season, while Phil Cotton has been awarded the Young Player of the Season.
Kiyun Dibny set a new personal record for league goals in a single season by scoring 15 goals and assisting seven times in 29 Premier League appearances this season. Among them, he shocked the crowd by scoring four solo goals in the match against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Therefore, winning the best player of the Premier League this season is well deserved.
The 30-year-old Belgium international says he is immensely proud to have won the full-season Premier League Player of the Year award once again, following the 2019/20 season. He hopes to continue contributing to the Manchester City team by scoring and assisting.
It is worth mentioning that 21-year-old midfielder Phil Cotton was honored as the best young player in the Premier League for the second consecutive season. This season, he played 27 games in the Premier League and scored nine goals.
